Ann Weber - Dolby Chadwick Gallery - March 5th 5:00 PM - 7:00 PM<div class="page" title="Page 1">
<div class="section">
<div class="layoutArea">
<div class="column">
<p>Dolby Chadwick Gallery is pleased to announce an exhibition of new work by Ann Weber. Weber has drawn praise for her ability to commute the everyday into the extraordinary, utilizing found cardboard to create poignant, sensuous, and often anthropomorphic forms.</p>
<p>For her large-scale &ldquo;Personages&rdquo; works, Weber first constructs an internal, three-dimensional armature in cardboard that she then wraps with strips of cardboard measuring no more than a couple of inches wide. The resulting surface textures shift from alternating waves that overlap at a steady cadence to tightly woven crosshatchings to a &ldquo;coiling&rdquo; that recalls her earlier work as a potter and training under Viola Frey. These tall, upright pieces bear striking resemblance to the human body, an effect that is amplified by the artist&rsquo;s proclivity for grouping multiple sculptures into a single work, thereby alluding to our natural sociality and desire to find connection&mdash;within a clan, a family, or a relationship.</p>
<p>This attention to human bonds and belonging is evident in a work like Personages (We Three) (2013), for example. Here, two sculptures with ample waists that taper off at the top and base hug a central sculpture that grows lean around its middle, echoing the female form. Their negative and positive spaces complete one another, generating a coherence that would collapse with the removal of any one of the individual parts. Indeed, the very creation of each part is contingent on the others, since the material leftover from one structure&rsquo;s armature serves as the armature for the next. These works, which Weber made during a &ldquo;period of obstacles&rdquo; in her life, serve as an homage to the legions of people that looked after her. Weber explains that &ldquo;illustrating relationships&mdash;belaboring how important they are&mdash;is central to my work.&rdquo;</p>
<p>Weber&rsquo;s wall sculptures, on view in this exhibition, develop out of and utilize a process similar to that of her &ldquo;Personages.&rdquo; The first group of reliefs was inspired by stays in Italy, most recently as Visiting Artist at the American Academy of Rome. Weber points to her fascination with Bernini and his unique facility for articulating in marble the folds of fabric. Works such as Pluto (2014) and After Bernini (Charity) (2014) show Weber capturing the abstract details of this drapery without losing sight of the larger picture: the way in which the fabric falls is necessarily determined by the curve of the human form&mdash;or forms&mdash;that the fabric cloaks. In an interesting twist, Weber has looked to the high academic style of the seventeenth-century Italian Baroque to create work that is rooted in Arte Povera, an industrious Italian art movement of the 1960s and &rsquo;70s led by Michelangelo Pistoletto that advocated simple forms, everyday materials, and the breakdown of stringent art world hierarchies. Weber explains how &ldquo;the absurdity of using cardboard comes from Art Povera. Marble is really rough looking in its natural form, and I like this idea of creating beauty from such a rough material. Similarly, with cardboard, I like tempting beauty with such a mundane material.&rdquo;</p>
<p>Two works&mdash;titled After Ellsworth (Yellow) (2014) and After Ellsworth (Green) (2014)&mdash;bear similarities to Weber&rsquo;s Roman wall reliefs but were informed by Ellsworth Kelly&rsquo;s Spectrum V (1969), thirteen large paintings-cum-sculptures that each represent a single hue along the color spectrum.&nbsp;</p>
<div class="page" title="Page 2">
<div class="section">
<div class="layoutArea">
<div class="column">
<p>Weber was inspired by Kelly&rsquo;s use of color and insistence that &ldquo;presence&rdquo; is just as important as mark-making. In Weber&rsquo;s work we see this emphasis on presence via the arresting relationships she creates through form and color but also through her choice of material, which asserts itself in ways that are often more memorable than the traditional marbles or precious bronzes of old masterworks.</p>
<p>Ann Weber was born in 1950 in Jackson, Michigan, and earned her BA in art history from Purdue University in 1972. After living in New York, Weber moved to California to pursue her MFA at the College of Arts and Crafts in Oakland, where she studied with Viola Frey. Weber has shown at the San Jose Museum of Art; the Oakland Museum of California; the Boise Art Museum, Idaho; and the Evansville Art Museum, Indiana, among others. She was the subject of a solo exhibition at the Craft and Folk Art Museum in Los Angeles and has held residencies at the de Young, Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco; the American Academy in Rome; and the Lux Art Institute outside of San Diego. Her cardboard sculptures have been cast in bronze and fiberglass for public art projects in Phoenix, Denver, and Sacramento.&nbsp;</p>

Matt Gonzalez - Dolby Chadwick Gallery - March 5th 5:30 PM - 7:30 PM<div class="page" title="Page 1">
<div class="section">
<div class="layoutArea">
<div class="column">
<p style="text-align: justify;">Dolby Chadwick Gallery is excited to announce an exhibition of new work by Matt Gonzalez, scheduled to open on Thursday, March 5, 2014. Gonzalez&rsquo;s work is collage-based, utilizing bits of discarded paper products&mdash;from advertisements to cardboard containers&mdash;that he finds while walking around the city. Most of his compositions feature a highly layered, rectilinear aesthetic that recalls the gridded city streets he traverses and architectural matrixes he passes through. Recent works tend to focus on a single hue, such as red or blue, allowing Gonzalez to explore the nuances of a given color&rsquo;s range&mdash;which is amplified when a work draws on an extensive array of sources&mdash;and attend more closely to a work&rsquo;s sculptural and formal elements.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Gonzalez grew up in South Texas and was first introduced to abstract art when he moved to New York City to attend Columbia University. The conditions of his introduction were freeing, he explains, as they allowed him to explore abstraction without any preconceptions about its formal or institutional histories. The German artist Kurt Schwitters, with his iconic use of assemblage and found objects, exerts a primary influence on Gonzalez&rsquo;s practice. So too do the Situationists, an avant-garde, humanist art movement from the mid-twentieth century whose origins are partly rooted in Dadaism, a movement Schwitters is often associated with. Gonzalez explains that the Situationists &ldquo;loved geography, they loved the accidental. They would play games, like walking out the door, looking for the color red, and letting that process unfold as a largely unplanned journey. These walks, or d&eacute;rives, are not unlike what I&rsquo;m doing, which is drifting in and out of encounters that wouldn&rsquo;t otherwise occur.&rdquo;</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The Situationists were also a socially conscious, civic-minded group. Though Gonzalez&rsquo;s work is by no means purposively political&mdash;nor, for that matter, is it crafted with any kind of message in mind&mdash;by contextualizing it within a particular historical moment and analyzing its component parts, it is only human to try to read into its possible communicative angles. (Viewers, of course, bring this interpretative impulse to all abstract art, which by definition lacks an explicit message and thus resists assignations of intentionality.) In Gonzalez&rsquo;s case, the works may be seen to examine forces structuring city geography, since cities are political just in terms of how they are laid out, who lives where, and where the streets get cleaned and where they don&rsquo;t. The works also play around with consumerism, as the found materials were either used to promote or package products. &ldquo;Ultimately, the economic relationships that are embedded in all these paper strips have an undeniable political component,&rdquo; Gonzalez notes.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Matt Gonzalez was born in 1965 in McAllen, Texas, and received his BA from Columbia University and JD from Stanford Law School. He is current Chief Attorney at the San Francisco Public Defender&rsquo;s Office and a practicing artist. Since 2006, he has exhibited across the Bay Area, including at Adobe Books, Johansson Projects, Meridian Gallery, Park Life, and Smith Anderson Editions among others. This will be his first solo show with the Dolby Chadwick Gallery.&nbsp;</p>

- Scott Richards Contemporary Art - March 5th 5:30 PM - 7:30 PM<p><strong>Scott Richards Contemporary Art</strong> presents <strong>TELEMETRY</strong> a new series of textural abstract paintings by <strong>PETER FOX</strong>.&nbsp; An opening cocktail reception for the artist will take place on <strong>Thursday,</strong> <strong>March 5, 5:30-7:30 pm</strong>.&nbsp; The exhibition continues through <strong>March 28.</strong><strong><em>&nbsp;</em></strong></p>
<p>At first glance, the heavily textured surfaces of Peter Fox&rsquo;s paintings take on the appearance of something beyond paint.&nbsp; Variously compared to glazed porcelain, marbled paper, cake frosting, or even flattened rubber balloons, they speak to us on an evocative visual level.</p>
<p>&nbsp;The paint is applied with a custom-made applicator that dispenses small quantities of mixed colors onto an inclined canvas, allowing gravity to cause the paint to slide in multiple controlled drips.&nbsp; Despite the methodical technique, accidental variation is encouraged, and plays a central role in the outcome.&nbsp; The resulting rythmic color compositions are mesmerizing.&nbsp; In a review in <em>Hyperallergic</em> (July, 2012), Brendan S. Carroll wrote, &ldquo;From afar, the droplets form a shimmering field of light and color.&nbsp; On closer inspection, each buttery droplet feels like a universe unto itself.&rdquo;</p>
<p>Fox is obsessed with language, both the language of words and the language of color.&nbsp; The artist is known for his text paintings, consisting of partially hidden, disembodied words embedded in fields of color (he recently created a monumental-scale billboard using the words GO HOME, which was displayed at the Museu de Arte Rio Grande do Sul in Porto Alegre, Brazil).&nbsp; In his current series, the text is translated into pure abstraction: the language of words has been disassembled and reconstructed into an alternate language of of interrelated colors.</p>
<p>As illustrated by the series titled <strong>Disruptive Theologies</strong>, in which thick ropes of paint ropes of paint engulf the surface of photos printed on canvas, Fox&rsquo;s new paintings aim to &ldquo;subvert the pixelated order of reality.&rdquo; In the artist&rsquo;s words, the paintings incorporate &ldquo;aspects of figuration, surrealism, optical and psychedelic art, while staying firmly located in process-based abstraction. The tension between what it seems to be and what it seems to suggest is a primary emotive driver of the work; a developed Rorschach test, of sorts.&rdquo;</p>
<p>Peter Fox earned an MFA degree from Tyler School of Art, studying in Philadelphia and Rome.&nbsp; Since then, he has shown extensively throughout the United States and received many positive critical reviews.&nbsp; He lives and works in Brooklyn, New York.&nbsp; This is Fox&rsquo;s inaugural solo exhibition with Scott Richards Contemporary Art.</p>

<p align="center">Featuring: Diedrick Brackens<br /> Show Runs March 5 - April 23<br /> Reception Friday March 6, 5-8pm</p>
<p align="center"><strong>Frenetic textiles combine painting and sculpture, West African weaving and European tapestry, blunder and intention,&nbsp;domesticity and&nbsp;the wilderness of the imagination.</strong></p>
<p>&nbsp;<strong>Diedrick Brackens</strong>&nbsp;conjures the spirit of a homemaker and a myth-maker. In his exhibition at Johansson Projects, "This is Real Life," Brackens weaves colorful textiles that align domestic spaces with the infinite expanse of the imagination, though perhaps not quite immaculately. His category-jamming works rest on both wall and floor, with his weavings balancing the pictorial properties of painting and the textural elements of sculpture. Each woven thing evidences traces of European tapestry, West African weavings, and Southern quilting techniques, though through the course of its creation each work begins to speak its own language.&nbsp;Some of Bracken's colors in the weavings are derived from commonly found commercially dyed yarn while others, made from tea, wine, and bleach allude to gay vernacular, bodily fluids, cleansing and domesticity.&nbsp;Focusing on the intersection of blunder and intention, dye and stain, whole and broken, Brackens evokes a feeling but invites the viewer to fill in the blanks.</p>
<p>Diedrick Brackens earned his Masters of Fine Arts from California College of the Arts where he was the recipient of the Barclay Simpson Award. His work has been featured at the Berkeley Art Museum and the 3rd Ghetto Biennale in Port-au-Prince, Haiti in 2013, and he is a Visiting Assistant Professor of Art at the&nbsp;University&nbsp;of Oregon.</p>Sun, 22 Feb 2015 00:58:34 +0000http://www.artslant.com/sf/Events/listhttp://www.artslant.com/sf/Events/list

<p>Shaun Leonardo (MFA Painting, 2005) probes conventions of portraiture to reveal complexities of masculinity and manhood. Through self-conscious and physically demanding performances, as well as cutout paintings, drawings, and sculptures, his work negotiates ideals of worth, achievement, and maleness. Leonardo is the recipient of awards from Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture, New York Studio School, NYFA, and The Jerome Foundation. His work was recently exhibited in <em>Crossing Brooklyn</em> at the Brooklyn Museum.</p>

- Kadist Art Foundation - March 7th 12:00 PM - 6:00 PM<p style="text-align: justify;">Please join us in addressing Wikipedia&rsquo;s gender gap by attending our satellite edit-a-thon during International Women&rsquo;s Day weekend on March 7th, 2015. We will spend the afternoon participating in a communal update session as we work together to improve and add Wikipedia entries on subjects related to art and feminism.&nbsp;This will be one of many satellite edit-a-thons&nbsp;taking place over the same weekend in conjunction with the primary event at the Museum of Modern Art in New York.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Wikipedia's gender trouble is well documented. In a 2011 survey, Wikimedia found that less than 13% of its contributors are female.[1] The reasons for the gender gap are up for debate: suggestions include leisure inequality, how gender socialization shapes public comportment, and the contentious nature of Wikipedia's talk pages. The practical effect of this disparity, however, is not. Content is skewed by the lack of female participation. Many articles on notable women in history and art are absent on Wikipedia. This represents an alarming aporia in an increasingly important repository of shared knowledge.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Join us and help address this disparity at the Art+Feminism Wikipedia Edit-a-thon on Saturday, March 7, 2015, from noon to 6 pm at Kadist Art Foundation, 3295 20th Street, San Francisco.</p>
